Be inspired to push your work to new layers and textures! In this exciting 2-day workshop you will explore creating deeply textured and layered paintings, embedding objects and carving the surface. You will learn many accretion techniques as well as excavating with clay tools. You will be encouraged to develop and expand your voice using encaustic in a new way. An overview of a variety of mixed-media will also be demonstrated including casting wax, adding fiber and fabric as collage, and creating texture working with masks and stencils. You will create artworks that will develop your aesthetic and artistic voice with lots of one-on-one feedback.
This workshop is great for beginners as well as experienced artists.
